in Buy, Sell, & Trade - U.S. Coins
because i collect baseball cards, but i have some coins as well, (but i dont know what they're worth) ok here are the ones that i think might be good:

a 1953 silver dime
a quarter (i can't read the year) it has an eagle on one side, and a walking lady on the other, and it also silver
a 1971 silver dollar
a half dollar that is from 1776-1976 (at least that what it sez)
a 1965 half dollar that has an eagle on one side (instead of independence hall like the other one)

so can someone just please respond with their values (if any) thanks alot

    I will take them. I don't know the value maybe try the US coin forum.

    A 1953 dime is 90% silver and worth a minimum of 40-45 cents or so. That's just the "melt", or silver value. The coin probably wouldn't have any significant value over the "melt" price unless it is in Mint State.

    A Standing Liberty quarter is also 90% silver, and ones without dates generally go for $1.00-$1.50. They were made from 1916 to 1930.

    A 1971 Eisenhower dollar is copper-nickel if it has no mintmark or a "D" mintmark, and is worth only a small premium over face value, though perhaps as high as $2.00 to some folks (more if it is Mint State). If it has an "S" mintmark, then it is struck in 40% silver and worth a few dollars.

    A "1776-1976" half is a Bicentennial coin. Again, like the Eisenhower dollar, it is copper-nickel if it has no mintmark or a "D" mintmark, and is not usually worth any premium over face value if it is circulated. In Mint State, it might be worth a dollar or two. If it has an "S" mintmark, then it is struck in 40% silver and worth a few dollars.

    A 1965 Kennedy half is struck in 40% silver and is worth a dollar or two if circulated, slightly more if Mint State.

    It is really impossible to give any firm valuation for coins without seeing a picture of them, or at least knowing their mintmarks and correct grades.
